You say one, that you're agreeing to the one on the CRTC and Internet?

The motion on the Internet could be disposed of very quickly.

Does everyone support it?
The first one received is the motion on the CRTC and the Internet.
That's the one we're dealing with now.

Mr. Chairman, I could solve your problem by withdrawing the motion on film production certificates.

And there are no objections to the motion concerning the Internet?

Mr. Siksay, are you comfortable with that one too--the first motion, the one dealing with the CRTC and the Internet? If there's no objection, it's carried.

I want to mention two things.
We have on schedule in the first hour on Tuesday, March 11, Mr. Patrone, who is appearing on his appointment to the CRTC. In the second hour we'll have a panel continuing on the bill that we're dealing with.
That would probably be the following Thursday. Depending on what the Chairman wants, we could do the clause-by-clause consideration of the bill when we come back.
Yes, Madame Mourani.

Mr. Chairman, that's not a problem for me, but I would also like us to be able to hear our witnesses. We may need one or two additional meetings.

So we'd better today decide whether we want to deal with estimates.

I would, as chair here, say that the committee's not having.... They will be deemed reported and adopted--today.

Liberal
The Vice-Chair Liberal Mauril Bélanger
The deadline will be next week.
But Tuesday is already taken. If we don't deal with them, folks, they will be deemed adopted. But we're not going to deal with them right now. I'm going to pile this back into the chair's lap.

Andy Scott Liberal Fredericton, NB
What I meant was that if we don't decide we're going to deal with them, we will make a decision by default.
5:15 p.m.
Liberal
The Vice-Chair Liberal Mauril Bélanger
That's correct. A decision by default is that they're deemed accepted. We can't deal with that right now, so the parties who wish to deal with them could bring this up on Tuesday, or in between.
